Rev3Games over on YouTube™ got to have a chat with Nick Konkle about the gameplay and first impressions of the Elder Scrolls Online. The in game footage is very impressive i must say. Included are some great details about how the class system works, weapon swapping, number of spells, etc. I...

A few months back we had a post about the announcement of the Elder Scrolls Online from Bethesda. There hasn’t been a wealth of information flowing out of Bethesda about the game but they have just release a new video! I hope you guys enjoy it.This is a game we...

If you have ever read a Forgotten Realms book, played in a table-top D&D game, dueled fellow planeswalkers in MtG, or just love dungeion crawling, this is a game that should be on your radar. Neverwinter is an F2P MMO from Perfect World and Cryptic Studios (Star Trek Online and Champions Online). It will...

That quote echoed throughout the halls and was on the lips of every Marvel and Gazillion Entertainment developer over the entire weekend at the 2012 Comic Con. I’ll admit, this game initially was on the edge of my radar (trumped by the hype from Halo 4 as well as the...

A few weeks ago I heard an incredible rumor… “There is a teaser out for The Elder Scrolls Online.” — Wait what! I am currently playing SWTOR and find that any news about competing or potentially competing MMO’s is very important to me. I find myself being somewhat cynical towards...

Release: March 2011 This game has been veiled in secrecy and all knowledge of it kept behind closed doors for a while now. It is just till recently that we’ve been able to uncover some slivers of information about this upcoming game, and how exactly it will compare to the...

Release: 10/1/10 I’ve been a very big Ghost Recon fan all the way back to the original for XBOX. The combat system has evolved immensely since then, and the current combat tactics looks very crisp. Not only did they bring back the great versatility of the missions, but the team...

So I tweeted this the other day as SDCC raged on. Needless to say I’m pretty excited to check this game out. Bringing together many of the universes existent in this comic book super franchise and putting them into one game will be tough. I’m trying to figure out how...

Release: TBA Another platformer based on a great old game is planning to hit the shelves in the near future. This game looks like it’s going to be very similar to the recently released Earthworm Jim HD, and word has it that it’ll be co-op as well. Though I don’t...

Come on Bungie. This can’t be the last Halo game. Not yet. Please? NO? WHY!?!? OK. Fine. But I’m not happy about it 🙁 Halo: Reach the final game of an unforgettably awesome franchise. I mean who, at least once, hasn’t stayed up all night at a Halo based LAN...

With Comic-Con upon us we should see updates on games and maybe even a couple new games. This is what we saw today. I’m a huge fan of Green Lantern comics, I have most of the current edition sitting on my bookshelf now. So needless to say I’m super excited...

Release: Q4 / 2010 When I first saw this game’s release and witnessed all of the gameplay and features I wasn’t particularly impressed. I feel that the “golden age” of gaming is upon us, and in my mind remaking an old game is a very tough spot to tread. Remaking...

Release Date: Q4 / 2010 Square Enix have done what many would say is very uncharacteristic of a Final Fantasy, they have divided it into two separate games, each following their own unique story line. Unlike Final Fantasy X and X-2, it appears that there will not be a singular...

Did anyone else play the original Driver and that stupid training mode in the parking garage. As difficult as that was it was one of the more memorable training missions in any game I’ve played (probably because I yelled at my tv the entire time). The original Driver was great...

Release Date: TBA The polls are in and this game is hott. Konami and E3 are rating this as a 9.6 out of 10 as a follow up MGS platformer. It’s being tracked in the top 50 of all currently watched and anticipated games, so put this baby on your...

The year of the sequel continues with a look at Dead Rising 2. Now many of you played the first (I hope) but if not the game is similar in nature to Left 4 Dead and its sequel, just a little more on the arcade/cartoon side. It also, Dead Rising,...

Of all the games that we got a sneak preview of at E3 this year this was one of the few that I put on my list of I need to pre-order that because it is going to be ridiculously awesome. With that said I’m super hyped for the prospect...

Release Date: “Q4 2010” The most intense graphics-required game of all time returns, in the epic sequel to Crysis. E3 had a huge gameplay trailer and section devoted to this game, and frankly, the additions look crazy. With the IR and Heat sensitive scopes, combined with crisp looking active camo,...

Release Date: 11/9/2010 Being a veteran of Shooters from original Third Person till today’s First Person Shooter, I must admit that the development and detail that programmers at Activision have paid to their latest game is impeccable. The character rendering and interactive environments looks great! Taking a different turn from...

Most of the positive feelings about Portal 2 that I have when starting to write this preview come from an astounding original game. Portal was a beauty mark of innovation in the industry at the time of its release. That said, if there is one thing Valve is good at,...

So if you played Arkham Asylum you know the game was awesome. If you love Batman the game was super awesome. I’m a big time comic book nerd so being able to play an awesome video game based on a comic book, I was hyped, still am to play that...

Release: 11/16/2010 The Prospect of a multiplayer Assassin’s Creed is looking truly awesome. Ubisoft has decided to revamp AC2 and Ezio Auditore into a more complex and involved game. It’s been announced that there will be new characters, weapons which include a crossbow, and also a highly anticipated multiplayer mode!! You can find...

So while this may not be one of the most “hardcore” games previewed at E3 this year it is definitely one that I’m pumped to play. I’ve kept my SNES in working order all these years and the original Donkey Kong Country is one of the reasons I’ve done so....

We got asked on twitter today for a preview of NHL ’11. All you need to do is ask! Anyway, the NHL franchise is one of the few sports games the a frequently play and every year I get excited when they announce the new features for next years game....

I’ve been a huge Twisted Metal fan since it’s initial release more than over 15 years ago. Since it’s inception on the Playstation platform, Twisted Metal has been a powerhouse and in my mind an overlooked game. Twisted Metal Black for PS2 is, in my opinion, where Sony failed at...

This game can arguably be considered the most exciting game of E3 last year. In 2010 it seems to be repeating its glory. Overview TOR is at its core an MMO. It has all of the elements of classic MMOs. You will see leveling progression, gear drops, group dungeons, PVP,...

What up Isaac Clarke? First, I just want to say I am PUMPED for this game! I’ve played through the original Dead Space and every time I feel as though I find something new, a new piece comes out of the story. The game play is fantastic and the level...

After perusing even more countless FF XIV reviews, seeing the full compilation of screen shots, as well as all of the recent in-game footage from sources including beta… I’m not impressed for a few reasons. Here’s the link to some recent in-game footage: Here are my arguments concerning the new...

I stumbled across this today. I’m sure a lot of you have already seen this (if so why didn’t you tell me! :P), but if not check it out! Earthworm Jim in all his HD splendor! Yessssss! Anyway, this brought me back instantly to the days of my youth playing...
